Lost coffee shop au?

i find coffee shop aus to be boring but i’ll try. thinking… thinking…

Oceanic Organic Cuppas (claire came up with the name, the menu has an all natural hippie vibe to it). gee a lot of people work here. this place is barely scraping by and it doesn’t have a consistent aesthetic but they’re doing their best. jack is the manager, 3 days without an emotional breakdown is his new record. everybody loves him anyway. as you can imagine, many of ‘em alternate being baristas. kate and claire man the till and drink dispensers more often, using teamwork. if you show up when boone and shannon are doing their shift, ur order is gonna be wrong. sometimes on purpose. sun runs a garden on the roof to grow things that go into the cookies and cakes. hurley cooks/bakes these treats. sayid does the technical stuff. jin just wanted to be there to be with his wife, so he’s a waiter. sawyer doesn’t fucking do anything but read and make remarks (”dude, you work here too”). what does locke do here? nobody knows but he knows some shit. he really adds to the mystic vibe around here. charlie put ur fucking guitar away and wash the mugs. (”the customers like it!” “then you can play when we actually have customers. and for the love of god, put some socks on”) michael drew most the art on the walls and he’ll happily sell any you want- all right, have a good day. also walt is with him because he couldn’t afford a sitter. vincent is a secret in the basement, jack would lose his shit if he knew there was a dog in this place. claire gave birth to aaron in the bathroom. rose is also here, as i said they all take turns being baristas. her husband bernard brought along some new hires, ana lucia, eko and libby but they didn’t last long. jack you have too many employees this is a terrible business model

next door is the Kahuna Kafe,the coffee is great but most the staff are assholes. gault is the manager but he barely talks to anyone so naomi is pretty much in charge. miles just wants the paycheck. charlotte has a short-fuse but wants to keep her job so she doesn’t lash out at the customers. instead she rants at full steam later to miles n dan in the breakroom. its how she gets thru the day. that and dan’s presence makes her feel better. dan is only here because his mom insisted he get a job (because music isn’t a “real” job) so he’s trying this out. frank is frank, but in a coffee shop. keamy is an asshole who’s only here because it’s the only legal work he could get. he’s not allowed near customers anymore. the people at oceanic didn’t trust these new guys next door for a while but eventually grew fond of at least dan, miles, char and frank. and now they’re all amicle neighbours. besides they’re not the Real Enemy,

oceanic’s rivals across the street are Otherton™ Coffee (whom bought out The Dharma Chill Lounge years ago), one of many ventures started by mysterious and shady businessman only known as Jacob. and yes, the tm always goes after Otherton™ because they’re the starbucks of this world. looks pretty but it feels fake and over done, like it’s trying hard to be wholesome but it’s just superficial. It’s So Fucking Yellow. also the coffee/food is bland and terrible. everybody, staff and customers, feels at least slight uncomfortable but the business keeps going. nobody says anything. ben is the manager and everybody fucking hates him except for his vice manager Richard who kinda pities him. tom and ethan are “nice” but shady. this place is a front, i just know it. alex and karl are just here to get job experience on their resume, trying to ignore how weird it is. juliet’s fake smile and barista voice is something to be feared. she hates this job so much and wishes her boss would stop fucking hitting on her. next chance she gets she’s gonna quit and try that nice coffee shop across the street who seem to hire literally anyone no matter how fucked up and sad

desmond isn’t a part of any one faction in lost, so to fit that he keeps changing jobs until he settles with our oceanic guys. penny doesn’t work at any of these places, just a customer. goes to oceanic sometimes to support her husband, goes to kahuna sometimes to support her little brother. charles suggests she go to otherton™ but she refuses

i think i’m out of coffee shop headcanons but that was a lot anyways. rest assured that as befitting this genre, this would also contain lots of romance, pining, slow-burn and a romeo & juliet situation. of course, coffee shop aus don’t normally have 4 billion characters but whatever

so help me, i could translate the entire plot of lost into a coffee shop au if i wanted to. but i don’t. i hope what i’ve written here is suitably entertaining

#this is actually many many headcanons #but in different categories #i started off with nothing btw #and came up with something that could actually be entertaining #Anonymous #how the fuck did that take me an hour to write

LOST rewatch (season 2):

[follow the entire rewatch-tag here]

episode 1 – Man of Science, Man of Faith:

It’s Desmond tiiiiiime!!!! Maaaaake your own kind of muuuusiiiiiic!!!

OH MY GOD Jack’s flashback hair is horrible.

Desmond’s accent alone is worth watching the show but honestly, his whole character is a total game changer. He’s the personified sci-fi element and I McFriggin love it!

episode 2 – Adrift:

Big feels for Sawyer here

Does this count as the first on-island flashback when we see John climbing down the hatch? Because we already saw what happened after that in the previous episode… I guess it’s only a mini flashback but still… it is…

Awwww it’s the Dharma sharky

With every Michael flashback I hate his ex even more.

How did everything that’s happened so far only happen in 44 days?!?! It feels like they gone through enough drama for a whole year.

“box man”

episode 3 – Orientation:

Katey Sagal <3

Kate discovering the real important shit – first the chocolate, now the guns

“You needed a father figure and I needed a kidney.” Fuck you Anthony Cooper.

“Why do you find it so hard to believe?” – “Why do you find it so easy?” – “IT’S NEVER BEEN EASY!!!” --- you tell him, John!!!

episode 4 – Everybody Hates Hugo:

I missed Rose!

….Hurley’s boss at the fast food restaurant… ain’t that the same guy who bullied John at the box company? Did I ever notice that before?

episode 5 – …And Found:

Jin’s hair growing longer is all I ever needed for my inner peace.

That Sun + John scene in her garden :’)

I forgot how good the score of that show is. Suck me right up with the feels!

episode 6 – Abandoned:

Oh nooo… that the episode where Shannon dies? Please don’t!!!

I can never understand what it is Ghost Walt is saying to Shannon

John holding the baby *external screaming*

I’ll forever be bitter that they killed Shannon off – all the missed potential for character development

episode 7 – The Other 48 Days:

It’s Nathan Ingram looking like Indiana Jones.

Is it ever explained what the Arrow Station was for?

It’s so annoying that the place Ana killed Goodwin isn’t the same place where Jin finds his corpse in the jungle.

episode 8 – Collision:

Kate winning against Jack at golf is what I’m here for.

I wish Ana Lucia and Sayid had gotten more scenes together after that

“What good would it be to kill you if we’re both already dead?”

That reunion scene of Rose & Bernard and Sun & Jin is soooooo kitschy, I love it

episode 9 – What Kate Did:

Petition for Daniel Daw Kim to be topless more often

I… didn’t remember Sawyer fever-mumbles to Jack that he loves Kate

Ah yes, it’s the black horsey episode

Shannon’s funeral :’( whyyyyyy?????

“Boy, when you say beginning you mean… beginning.”

I’m trying to figure out who cut out part of the Orientation video… was it Kelvin?

Kate’s dad, who’s a very high ranking soldier: “I don’t have murder in my heart.” Me: …..sure, Jan.

“Don’t mistake coincidence for fate.” Mr. Eko and John could have had sooo many intriguing conversations; it’s a pity they had to write him out.

episode 10 – The 23rd Psalm:

I don’t like the whole drug plot but that’s probably because that means more plot for Charlie… like… don’t get me wrong: I like the backstory, but not the new found drama with Charlie

Smokey in his whole glory. That scene is so breath taking, I love it.

episode 11 – The Hunting Party:

I had forgotten the whole “Michael locks John and Jack up in the armory”-bit

And Jack and Locke actually taking a button-shift together? That’s programmed trouble.

Fuck you Jack! Take Kate with you! You’ve known her for…. What? Over 50 days? You know she won’t stay behind. You’re really no good judge of character, are you?

funny how John is so curious about Sawyer’s name… kinds foreshadowing to the whole Anthony Cooper connection as if John already felt it somehow

Geronimo Jackson

episode 12 – Fire + Water:

I find it interesting that they chose a + symbol for the title instead of “and” or an ampersand.

Charlie’s parents’ accents are… bad.

“Now Locke’s your friend, eh?” oh shut the fuck up Charlie!!!

Hurley as Jesus on Charlie’s dream is foreshadowing

The difference between Charlie and John is that John is protective over Claire and Aaron whereas Charlie is possessive.

“[Kate’s] hot, [Jack’s] hot” – Ana Lucia, confirmed bisexual.

YAAAAS!!! Hit the bastard, John! You show him!!!!

episode 13 – The Long Con:

“You wanna break seven virgin Marys? Be my guest! But I’m superstitious.”

Yunjin Kim is the only person on earth that can make the colour orange look good to me

Seriously… I didn’t remember why exactly I dislike Charlie so much but season 2 reminds me episode by episode.

episode 14 – One Of Them:

IT’S HAPPENING! EVERYBODY STAY CALM!!!!

I’m so here for every scene between Sayid and Danielle

Amazing “arm waving through a tent” acting @Michael Emerson!!!

“My name is Henry Gale, I’m from Minnesota.” LIIIIIIAAAAAARRRR!!!

I think the first time I watched it I was so excited about Michael Emerson that I didn’t notice the guy who’s talking to Sayid in the next scene is Kelvin.

The first time John sees his future island husband… awwwww :’)

Funny how at first John doesn’t believe Ben’s act but later he’s like “tell me all the lies, I’ll believe you anything, my dear!”

“Why would you travel [in a hot air balloon]?” – “Because I was rich.” Has any line in the entire show ever been that real?

I have trouble believing that Jack is physically stronger than John.

The first time we see the hieroglyphs on the timer.

episode 15 – Maternity Leave:

Alex!!! My pretty little child!!!

Oh my sassy dear rat boy

And creepy Ethan is back.

Mr. Eko: *cuts his beard off* – Not Henry Gale: Okay, wtf?

“Are you the genius or are you the guy who’s feeling like he’s always living in the shadow of the genius?” Ben you little asshole!

episode 16 – The Whole Truth:

Daniel Dae Kim shirtless again – thanks for answering my prayers

Terry O’Quinn gets sexier the scruffier he is

Does Sun realise she’s pregnant this early?!?!?!

Okay John just totally took a glance at Jack’s dick after he was getting out of the shower.

“Jack and Locke are a little too busy worrying about Locke and Jack.”

Oh riiiight, Kate doesn’t know about Not Henry Gale

The fact that Ana Lucia and Sayid get along okayish fills my heart with so much joy but then I remember she’s gonna be dead in like… 2 episodes and I hate that.

“Men reject their prophets and slay them but they love their martyrs and honour those whom they have slain. So what’s the difference between a martyr and a prophet?”

episode 17 – Lockdown:

The first time Ben yells “Jaaawwwn!”

There’s also more and more Emerchesthair going on and I’m here for it!!!

“How about you put your mangos where your mouth is?”

Anthony Cooper you fucking asshole.

John just found the most inappropriate time to propose to someone

“You came back!” – “Did you think I was gonna leave you here?!”

episode 18 – Dave:

I wish Hurley’s story wasn’t focussing on his weight to much

John putting in a good word for Not Henry Gale is my vibe!

Never mind… bondage Ben is MY VIBE!!!

“God doesn’t know how long we’ve been here, John. He can’t see this island any better than the rest of the world can.” --- that’s one of the most underrated lines in the entire show I think.

episode 19 – S.O.S.:

Moooore chesthair action!!!

I love that Rose and Bernard just fairly recently met and haven’t been together for like 30 years already.

episode 20 – Two For The Road:

Ugh is that the Ana Lucia/Christian Shephard episode?? I’m always in for more daddy Shephard.

Strangulation really is Ben’s go to kill method, isn’t it?

“I was coming for you.” – you sure were, my guy. You sure were.

episode 21 - ? :

“the artist formerly known as Henry Gale”

Terry O’Quinn’s arms give me life

It’s the Pearl station

Oh riiiight there’s been cameras in the Swan station, totally forgot that

“every single second of my pathetic little life is as useless as that button” poor John

Sawyer comforting Kate… I’m here for it!

episode 22 – Three Minutes:

Oh Alex, my sweet angel

“we got caught in a net” – “why are you telling me this, Sawyer?” – “because you’re about the closet thing I got a friend on this island, Doctor.” I wish they had spent more time focussing on that broship rather than the love triangle

DESMOND’S BACK!!!!

episodes 23 and 24 – Live Together, Die Alone:

“we’re stuck in a bloody snow globe”

Charles fucking Widmore, my OTV – One True Villain

Aaah it’s the weird Hurley bird

John crying in the jungle breaks my heart (and fuck you Charlie for making fun of him)

“with enough money and determination you can find anyone”

Desmond realising John saved his life by hammering on that hatch door is one of the best moments in the whole show.

Not Henry Gale is back, my bebe, right there with the dramatic appearance on a boat

Desmond really big on competing against Sayid in the “who’s got the best island hair”-competition (Sayid still winning tho)

“I’m sorry for whatever happened that made you stop believing but it’s all real.”

“We’re the good guys, Michael!”

#lost show #lost #lost abc #Maddie rewatches LOST #yes #i did watch 8 episodes today #need to got to my boy Not Henry Gale quickly okay?!
